A Kiss in the Wind

Pirate captain Blade Tyburn is not pleased to find the letter he's been waiting for is missing. He's even less pleased when he discovers the thief is a ravenhaired beauty who bewitches his senses and muddles his thinking. The note gives the location of a silverladen ship that'll make his fortune; Blade must find it, and if that means bringing Marisol along on the voyage, so be it. Marisol believes Monte sails on the very ship Blade is to meet and strikes a deal with the handsome rogue. If he will give her passage to her brother, she will give him the exact location he needs.

Publisher's Summary

Pirate captain Thayer Drake lures ships onto reefs for plunder, and business is lucrative. Yet, saving a lass from drowning after her ship wrecks becomes more than he bargained for when the crazy wench dives back into the raging sea for her blasted purse.

Tavern songstress Gilly McCoy, penniless and fleeing from the man who murdered her lover, stowed away on the doomed ship. Now at Drake's mercy, Gilly must earn her passage by performing for the captain. And that is not all: she must also kiss the captain at every ring of the ship's bell. But she discovers kissing the handsome rogue is not entirely a bad bargain....

Drake is intrigued by the beauty, but there is no room in his black heart for a woman. He has demons that he drinks nightly to forget. Meanwhile, Gilly has her own secrets to keep - ncluding why her purse is more valuable to her than her life....

This was a thoroughly enjoyable listen about a handsome pirate who is tortured by his past until he rescues a damsel in distress from a ship he's just helped to sink! Then insists on payment for her passage - but not in money!

Romance, humour, good storyline, great characters and a good narrator.
